Rear flashers

He all
My son received a 1994 F250 with less than 70000 on it. So, I'm giving it the once over and realize the rear hazards are not working. The turn signals work, but I didn't get the chance to check the brakes. Can anyone give me a hint on what the problem might be.
Thanks
Jim

I can't recall off the top of my head, but I think the hazards and the turn signals both have their own flasher modules on a 94.

My '95 has two flashers, but if it is only the rear not working, then seems may be a different problem

I would pull both flashers and hit with contact cleaner, then reinstall. Same goes with disconnecting the rear bed harness.

These trucks are old.

You may also have wrong bulbs. They should be dual filament stock.

Not to ask a stupid question, but I see only 1 old style blinker in the fuse box. Where is the other one located?

Not stupid, very good one.

It is on the back of the fuse box, essentially in same spot as other.

And kind of a pain in the **** to get to... The fuse panel mounting in my '87 is broken, I'm pretty sure from somebody trying to get to that flasher at some point.

So there are 2 flashers on the fuse box? Would this also be why the right light on the dash isn't working?

if the front flashers and rear brake lights and blinkers are working but the rear flashers are not, my bet is the multi function switch is bad.

I got the dash working, but the rear hazard still don't work. Do you mean the hazard switch is bad?

if all other lights except for the rear flashers work, yes the problem is in the switch.
but it is part of the multifunction switch in the column. blinkers, flashers and headlight dimmer.
